Nicks when healthy is a top 5 receiver but Cruz is no drop off. Have to lock both of them up without question. No ifs ands or buts about it. Cruz is a special special receiver. If we let him get away I would cry.

His first two years he put up jaw dropping numbers..... just outstanding

Dump Cruz, he drops too many passes

Think I saw an arguement on here that showed Cruz had 640 yards in 5 games this year? He's a good and can be a very good if not elite wide receiver but no football God! Comparing him to Irvin, Rice, Moss, Carter, both Johnsons and Marshall is a stretch I think right now, he had one great elite year and one good year so far. Hopefully he can continue to get better and be mentioned with the likes of the people you listed. But right now let's just worry about getting Nicks healthy and have them both get 80 rec 1500 12 td years! Cruz isn't going anywhere for at least another year anyway so Eli should have a field day like he did in 2011 with both of his go to guys healthy and ready to go.

I'm with you on the Cruz part of the equation. No brainer, they must resign that kid. I'm scared of Nicks on a huge deal only because he misses at least 3 games every year, and this year he was healthy for about 2 games. (tampa and green bay). his productivity can't be questioned. his ability to stay on the field is another issue. I'd play that out and see how 2013 goes for Hakeem. then can always franchise him if need be.

The highlighted except is likely, but not a guarantee. It's not beyond the realm of possibility that a team well under the CAP with need of a proven veteran receiver would cough up a first round pick IF Cruz is tendered.

That's a risk most teams take and it turns out well for them. Usuallys teams well under the cap have the higher picks also.
